I twisted my ankle about 2 hours ago. its swollen a little and hurts to walk. do i need to go to dr or will it be ok?

If minor, as it : Sounds to be ice it, a brace is helpful as well. If after a week or two it is bothering you still then you can seek treatment. I would think it would be fine by then.

RICE: I agree with dr. Kass. Rice. Rest- 24 to 28 hrs. Avoid activities that require use of your ankle. Ice- for first 2 days after injury, apply ice for 15 to 20 min. Every few hours. A bag of frozen peas is good. Compression- you can wrap your foot, ankle & lower leg with an ace wrap. Make sure it is not so tight that it decreases your circulation. Elevate- elevate ankle above your heart. Cont'd.
